handling is better than vios seriously.. i like the handling, i overtake many cars during corner road hahahahahha

yup...i notice that the 1st time i turn the steering once out of the SC
it felt so good....it's not to hard not too soft...it corners very well
this is why ppl said lotus handling is the best in the world
even put into this cheapo car also felt so good already...can't imagine how it feel in a real lotus car

yup, +-1 year also..
my power steering fluid keep on empty... from time to time i need to refill (once in a week or two).. dangerous also, if the rack phailed suddenly, u cant control ur wheel even a bit, juz imagine when it happened while u syiok2 taking corner... heheheh
*
can control...it's just very hard to turn only
need to use alot of strength

prices of product almost the same as outside
the only thing that makes the whole service expensive is their labour
sarawak there is cheap
but sabah here...still RM50/100
and brake pad those...alot of aftermarket which is better

my dad just called me up, our BLM got into some serious issue this morning. car left undriven for 3 days, then this morning cannot start. not about the battery, but the piston of the engine. mechanic came and put some WD40 at the piston ring there, few attempts to ignite, the engine move. mechanic says this issue is not new, there's an FL at our place, just on the road for 2 weeks, same issue like our 3 yo BLM. we did not proceed to COE for the warranty claim coz our ride is 3 yo, and we did not service at COE, and as well as using our self-brought engine oil for every treatment at the authorized SC.

piston cracked?

For that price i'd rather get pennzoil platinum fully synthetic 5W-30.
And btw, sometimes my car is left for 5 days and so far there's no issues starting up my 1-year old car.
*
ya...for KL ma
in sabah...everything is more expensive than KL
if i'm not wrong....the torqNM 10w-40 is selling like RM105 in KL
but selling RM128 in sabah...but he give me RM120
might want to try your suggestion but i really dn't know where got sell and i wonder what price is it at
5w-30 must have been very smooth pickup

I start off with 10-40w,
then change to 20-50w(as reco by service manual) , car become very heavy.. no power.
goback to 10-40w,, ok.
change to 10-30w, wah, better performance..  then become more ambition, change to 5-30w. pickup good, but engine quite noisy. so now use 10-30w mineral , change every 5000km..
*
did u use the same brand all the way or u switch brand?
cuz what brand u use means everything abt the noise

aiya, my fc RM55-RM60 only manage to climb till 230-240KM only.. is it bcos de car still need??

btw, do u guys face the prob..?? Auto.. from gear 1 to gear 2 need very long time just can switch, i mean to switch from gear 1 to gear 2..

Especially when the engine is cool.. is harder to switch..

and also.. the aircon will auto cut off and come out with warm air? few second for warm air.. any? the cold temp i already put at quite max..
*
1st...your car still need few more service to archive better FC
2nd...gear change when engine still cold is very hard
3rd...do not turn the temp to max....your aircon's life will not be so long...just turn to middle...very cold already

shocking.gif  shocking.gif 420km?? My 1st full tank only reached 240km and i'm driving a manual type. I noticed the car rev quite high or just maybe mine is still very new? Less than 2 weeks and haven't done the 1000km service. What is you guys car's rpm when then car is not moving?? Mine is at 1.8k and i think it is consider high. Can lower down? Please advice.  smile.gif
*
revving is hard becuz the ori oil in the car is thick
when service...switch to lighter oil...u will definitely feel the difference

AHHHH.....RPM for car not moving is less than 1K...WTH yours is 1.8k???

now i know why our car drink petrol like mad
*
it's the weight of the car actually that affects the FC
cuz BLM is too heavy for 1.3L
even wira is lighter
that is why saga have better FC when travelling far cuz when u travel high speed...your car is alot lighter than standstill

cause last time i pump 30L, then after indicator blinking i can pump up to 26++L oil ady vomit.. thats big different
*
it's accurate actually...it's the design of the fuel tank that makes it like that
the tank is 40L
10L is reserve
30L is available one....when the indicator start blinking...it's around left 5L
it's to prevent u breaking down...the other 10L is to guarantee the NO break down
